About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Fenney is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self esteem and depression. Geoffrey aims to make the first step easier for people who feel overwhelmed or unsure about therapy.
He believes each person knows their own story best and brings that knowledge into sessions. Geoffrey focuses on building a respectful, steady working relationship that helps people feel heard and understood.
How Geoffrey works
Conversations are direct and practical, with room to explore feelings, memories and patterns that cause pain. His approach draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. He also uses client-centred ways of listening that put the person's experience at the centre.
Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with grounding, stress and managing difficult emotions. Sessions tend to be collaborative and paced to the person's needs. Geoffrey helps people set small, achievable goals and notices progress along the way.
He encourages straightforward talk about setbacks as well as strengths. For someone carrying grief, trauma or long-term low mood, Geoffrey aims to create a calm space to work through difficult material. He supports practical steps to improve motivation and self worth while attending to underlying patterns that fuel anxiety and depression.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current patterns. Online sessions can help people notice attachment reactions in real time and practise new ways of relating. Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the work, with the counsellor offering attentive listening and reflection to help the person make sense of feelings and choices.Mindfulness therapy offers simple exercises to reduce overwhelm and increase present-moment focus. These practices can be guided in a video call or adapted to short text-based check-ins to suit what feels manageable. Together these approaches help with anxiety, grief, low mood and relationship patterns that cause distress.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Geoffrey treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss which methods fit someone’s needs and goals. He will adjust pace and techniques based on what the person prefers and what proves helpful in early sessions.
Online therapy brings practical benefits such as flexibility and easier scheduling. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, and live chat or messaging can provide shorter check-ins between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy going around work, health constraints or family commitments while still focusing on steady progress.
